The American Cancer Society Turns 100

This May, the American Cancer Society celebrated its 100th birthday. To celebrate, and honor cancer survivors, the American Cancer Society is featuring 100 stories from everyday people who are helping to finish the fight against cancer.

Here at Penn’s Abramson Cancer Center, we also have stories of people finishing the fight.

From the cancer researchers who are making life-changing discoveries in the lab, to the physicians who are bringing those lab discoveries to bedside care, the Abramson Cancer Center continues to be at the forefront of cancer research.
And the friends and families affected by cancer are also making a difference by acting for change.
